One record for every flock, from chick placement to the last lift.

Manage chick placements, shed-wise mortality, feed bins, sample weights, vaccination, medicine withdrawal, egg grading, lifts and grower settlements in one system. Every entry carries a flock number, so a poor feed conversion figure traces back to the feed lot, the chick batch or the week trouble began. Supervisors key the daily sheet on a phone inside the shed itself.

  • Shed layout, breed targets and the vaccine schedule for Newcastle disease, infectious bursal disease and bronchitis entered exactly as you run them today
  • Open flocks, feed in the bins and unpaid supplier and buyer bills brought across from your registers and checked by your own supervisors
  • Changes to schedules, grading classes and withdrawal periods made by GullySystem staff on request, after your vet adviser has read them back

Broiler and layer farms keep placements, daily shed sheets, feed, vaccination and sales together in Poultry Farm Management Software from GullySystem. Chick source, mortality, feed bags, weights and medicine courses sit under each flock number. Egg grading, lift weighment and grower settlements come from the same record, so the farm reads one set of figures.

Where it breaks today

What goes wrong before the software.

Daily sheets stay on the shed wall

Mortality, culls, water drawn and shed temperature go on a wall board first and reach the register only at the weekend. A bad morning in the brooder repeats for days before anyone notices. Patterns stay hidden.

Feed is drawn without a flock number

Bags leave a common store for several sheds without a flock number written anywhere. When conversion slips, the farm cannot separate a feed lot problem from a chick problem, so blame is guessed and the feed miller hears it first.

Chick quality is judged by feel

A batch arrives with a grade note and a breeder flock reference, and both are then lost in a drawer. First-week deaths spike with no hatchery name beside them. Nothing links the loss to its source.

Withdrawal periods depend on memory

A course of antibiotic and a booked sale sit in different notes, and nobody checks the dates against each other before the catching crew and truck are called. Residue complaints from the processor follow. Buyers remember them.

Egg trays are counted three times

The house, the store and the dealer each count trays of thirty eggs and arrive at three different totals, while cracks and rejects are only estimated. Grading splits cannot be defended. Dealers push back on every invoice.

Growers are paid from rebuilt sheets

Chicks placed, feed supplied, birds lifted and mortality live in four separate books, so the settlement is rebuilt by hand and the grower argues each line. Payment slips by weeks, and trust slips with it.

How it runs

How the work flows through it, step by step.

  1. 1

    Placement

    Chicks are counted at the gate and entered against a shed with the hatchery, breeder flock and grade, and a flock number opens at that moment. It stays with every later entry until the shed is cleaned out.

  2. 2

    Brooding and daily sheet

    Supervisors record mortality, culls, feed opened, water and temperature for each shed every morning, and counts above the expected curve are flagged for the manager. A brooding problem reaches the manager while it is still small.

  3. 3

    Feed and health

    Feed is issued from bins to a flock, vaccines are logged with the batch used, and every medicine course carries a withdrawal end date. A vet visit is noted too. Each lands on the flock concerned.

  4. 4

    Growth checks

    Weekly sample weights are saved and set against the breed target, so the manager sees which sheds are ahead of the curve and which are behind it. Gaps show against the curve.

  5. 5

    Lift or egg dispatch

    Broiler flocks are scheduled for catching, with a weighbridge slip for every truck, while layer houses send graded trays to dealers against a signed count. Any shortage is noted at the door.

  6. 6

    Settlement and closure

    Sale bills, buyer claims and grower settlements are raised from the recorded figures. Then the shed is cleaned and rested, and the flock closes with its final conversion and margin on the sale.

Modules

What is inside.

Every module can be switched on, left out or changed to match how your team already works.

Flock and shed register

Open a flock for each placement with the shed, hatchery, breeder flock, chick count and grade, and every later entry carries the same number through to the final lift. One number, one history.

Daily shed sheet

Capture mortality, culls, feed opened, water reading and temperature per shed on a phone. A count above the breed curve alerts the manager the same morning, before the next shed is walked, so the warning comes early.

Feed bins and issue

Record bulk or bagged feed received bin by bin and then issued to each flock, with returns noted, so that conversion is read against the feed lot actually used. Memory plays no part.

Weights and growth targets

Save weekly sample weighings for each flock and compare them with the target for the breed, so a lagging shed is seen early. A flat curve raises a flag for the manager.

Vaccination and medicine

Hold the vaccine calendar, batch numbers and every medicine course, with the withdrawal end date shown on the flock. A sale booked before that date draws a warning. The vet adviser can approve an exception.

Egg collection and grading

Record eggs collected per layer shed, then size grades, cracks and rejects, and send trays to each dealer against a count that both sides sign at the door. A short delivery is visible at once.

Lift planning and weighment

Plan the catching crew and trucks, enter each weighbridge slip, and record the buyer’s shortage or dead-on-arrival claim against the load. Every truck ties back to the flock and shed it left behind.

Contract grower settlement

Work out each grower’s payment from chicks placed, feed supplied, birds lifted and mortality, using the grower agreement, with the figure behind every line shown on the sheet. Each dispute starts from a figure.

Chick, feed and medicine purchases

Raise orders to hatcheries, feed mills and veterinary suppliers, and match each receipt to what arrived at the gate before the bill is passed. Short boxes and light feed loads are noted on the day, not later.

Biosecurity and visitor log

Note visitors, vehicles and disinfection at the farm gate and each shed door, so a disease alert can be followed to the people and vehicles that entered each shed. Foot dips are logged too.

Solutions inside

The business modules it is built from.

Each one is also available on its own, or inside a system built for you.

  • Batch and Serial Tracking

    Every placement opens a flock number that follows chicks, feed and medicine to the final lift, so any figure traces back to its batch.

  • Stock Tracking and Alerts

    Bags and bulk loads are logged in and out of each bin, and a low bin raises an alert before the sheds run short.

  • Purchase Order Management

    Orders to hatcheries, feed mills and vet suppliers are raised with quantity and rate, then matched against what the gate received.

  • Goods Receipt (GRN)

    Chick boxes, feed loads and vials are checked at the gate against the order, and any shortfall is recorded before the supplier’s bill is accepted.

  • Quality Control

    Sample weighings and grade notes are recorded against each flock, and a shed behind its target is flagged for the manager to inspect.

  • Task Management

    Each shed carries its morning tasks, such as walks, feed checks and vaccination rounds, with an owner and a tick when the supervisor finishes.

  • Invoice Management

    Sale bills are raised from the weighbridge slips of each truck, with buyer shortage claims adjusted on the same invoice.

  • Workflow and Approvals

    A sale or a medicine course waits for the vet adviser’s approval, and the record shows who agreed and on which date.

Services

How we would put it in.

Setup, data migration, integrations and anything built on top.

Who uses it

One system, each person sees their part.

For farm owners

Read each flock’s conversion, mortality and margin against its sale, and see which sheds, feed lots or chick sources cost more than they returned. Decisions rest on figures, not on impressions of the season.

For shed supervisors

Enter the morning sheet, weights and vaccination from a phone, and see the day’s tasks for each shed. One list replaces the notebook that used to ride in a pocket.

For the feed and medicine store

Receive bags and vials, issue them to flocks, watch bin levels fall, and return unused stock to the record, so nothing leaves the store without a flock number against it. Counts stay honest.

For the veterinary adviser

Review mortality trends, post-mortem notes and medicine courses before advising on treatment or a lift date, with the whole farm on one screen. Phone calls become one look.

For accounts

Match supplier bills to receipts, raise sale bills from weighbridge slips and prepare grower settlements from recorded figures. Every line, from feed to final sale, traces to a document that anyone can open.

Reports

The numbers the owner asks for.

  • Flock summary with placement, mortality, feed used and final feed conversion
  • Mortality by shed, day and recorded cause
  • Feed received, issued and left in each bin
  • Sample weight against breed target by week
  • Vaccination and medicine courses with withdrawal end dates
  • Egg production, grade split and rejects by layer shed
  • Grower settlement sheets with the figures behind each line
Good fit

Who this is built for.

  • Broiler farms placing and lifting flocks in a fixed cycle of brooding, growing, catching and rest between batches, with the same shed used again and again through the year
  • Layer farms collecting and grading eggs from several houses, sending trays to dealers against a signed count, and watching production against the breed curve
  • Integrators that supply chicks, feed and medicine to contract growers and then settle with them on placement and lift figures
  • Breeder and pullet rearing farms keeping flock-wise records of weights, uniformity, vaccination and transfer to the laying house at point of lay
  • Farms selling live birds or eggs to dealers and processors, who ask for withdrawal dates and a weighbridge slip before they accept a load at their gate
Honest answer

When it is not the right choice.

  • A backyard keeper with a few dozen birds can keep a notebook and does not need flock-level software. Several sheds with rotating batches soon change that.
  • Hatcheries that set and hatch eggs will find Hatcheries Management Software closer, and feed mills are better served by a manufacturing product built around formulation and batching.
Made to fit

Adapted to your business before it goes live.

You are not handed a login and left to it. The product is set up around your records, your people and the tools you already use.

Shed layout and breed targets

Your houses, capacity per shed and the target weight and mortality curves for the breeds you rear are entered before the first placement. Nothing is assumed from a default breed.

Vaccine and medicine schedule

Dose dates and withdrawal periods are copied from the written plan your vet gives you, and the adviser reads them back before they go live. No schedule is set from memory.

Grading classes

Egg size classes, tray sizes and reject rules follow the buyers you serve, so a large or medium count means to the dealer exactly what it means on your sheet. No disputes at the door.

Grower terms

Settlement rules, shortage allowances and deductions are set from the grower agreements you hold, and your accounts staff test them on a past flock before any live run.

Open flocks and balances

Running flocks, feed in the bins and unpaid supplier and buyer bills are brought across before go-live, then checked shed by shed with your supervisors against the physical count.

Hosted by GullySystem

GullySystem hosts the service, so the office and every shed supervisor read one set of flock records. Nobody on your side maintains servers. Nobody carries out backups by hand.

Common questions

Questions owners ask before a demo.

Is it built for broilers, layers or both?

Both. Broiler flocks follow placement to lift, while layer houses add daily egg collection and grading, and the sheds you run decide which screens are switched on. A broiler farm never sees tray counts.

How does it find the cause of poor conversion?

Each flock number holds the chick source, feed lots issued, weights and medicine courses, so read side by side they show where one flock differed from another. The hatchery, the feed or the shed.

Can a supervisor enter the sheet from inside the shed itself?

Yes, from a phone browser. A signal is required, so farms with poor coverage pick a spot by the feed store where the day’s figures are keyed in. The sheet mirrors your wall board.

Does it warn about medicine withdrawal?

It shows the end date of each course on the flock and warns when a lift is scheduled earlier. The period itself comes from your vet’s written instructions. The system never invents one.

Can it record deliveries of chicks from several hatcheries?

Yes. Each placement names its hatchery and breeder flock, with the box count at the gate and the grade noted, so early losses can be compared by source across several batches. Source and loss sit side by side.

Does it handle contract growers?

Yes. Placements, feed supplied, birds lifted and mortality are tied to the grower, and the settlement sheet shows each figure. Payment rules come from the grower agreement. Line by line, nothing hidden.

How are egg counts agreed with dealers?

Trays are logged leaving the house, and the dealer’s count is entered at delivery. A difference is shown on the dispatch record, so it is settled there and not argued by phone a week later.

Can our existing flock records be moved in?

Open flocks, feed in the bins and unpaid bills are loaded from your registers or sheets. Older closed flocks can come in later, when you want their history for comparison with current batches.

What does it cost for one farm, and can we see it on our own flock records?

Price moves with how many sheds you run, how many people log in and which screens are active, and we run a demo using your flock types. Only after that do we send a written quote.

Do you track sheds with sensors?

Not as standard. Temperature and water readings are entered by the supervisor, and controller or scale connections are built as a separate job once we have seen the equipment on the farm.
